    So today managed to get the down pipe and full scorpion exhaust bolted up in place.


    Inlet manifold back on ect and fired her up after some fresh petrol but it ran very lumpy/missfire so I asume theres crap fuel still in it....







    Things to sort which some may have an idea about.


    Interior heater fan not working?


    Rad Fan not kicking it, temp gets to half way 90degrees and still nothing


    Lumpy tick over, had new plugs, rotor arm and dizzy cap, so perhaps leads,bad fuel and I have a fuel filter togo on aswell?


    Brake pedal very spongey still, more air in the system perhaps? the split in the brake servo pipe could this have draged air into the system or poss brake master cylinder screwed?


    Reverse gear unable to select but can 1st gear ect, linkeage feels very very loose also.

    So the the interior fan is now working, the ignition barrel is worn i think because some times the fan will come on and work when the i wiggle the key in the barrel so reckon i will have to change the barrel and locks at some point.


    Finally collected my 14" Tempra rims, plan to have them polished and lower profile tyres fitted.





    Up against the car

    Where are you getting them polished?

    Do you mean like a diamond cut finish?

    We use lepsons, it's the same place that dean used.

    Picked up a load more parts as i knew a guy breaking his mk2 turbo, shame to see yet another die.

    However it means my can live with some fresh parts.

    Managed to get

    A spare AFM, Brake master cylinder, clutch master cylinder both virtually new, spare instrument cluster, nearly new petrol tank, polly bushed rear beam, braided brake lines x 5, polly bushed lower arms, polly bushed front ARB, 14" Compomotive Mo's with Yoko's, 2 x doors, 2 x door rubbers, spare fuse box and relays, rear door cards, oil cooler, momo gear knob, 2 coil units, boot struts, omp strut brace, ignition switch and the kitchen sink lol

    Cant have enough spares with these cars.

    So the Comps 6x 14", going to keep the tyres for my Uno rims that im having polished so will be selling the Mo's minus tyres if anyone is interested.



    Rear beam, will strip it down and re-paint it before fitting i hope.



    and more suspension parts
